This massive volume, written by a best-selling author of Internet and computer books, tells you everything you needed to know about the online world, and probably plenty of things you didn´t!

As a reference manual for novices and more experienced users alike, it serves as an excellent tool that will answer many questions or provide the groundwork for further research. It covers everything from getting connected to the Internet, to using e-mail and discussion groups, choosing and using the right web browser software, creating and maintaining websites, marketing techniques, analysing web traffic logs, and finally Internet telephony. There is also a section devoted to guiding the reader to the best web sites across different subject categories.

This expansive book covers a great deal of information about the Internet and what it lacks in depth it makes up for by comprehensiveness of topics. A valuable book to have on your shelves ready for a quick answer the next time an Internet ‘blockage´ is encountered!
